The Centre, as per its announcement in the annual budget, will relieve debt-ridden farmers from their loans within three weeks by issuing final orders.
Pawar, who was here to participate in the golden jubilee celebration of Ahmednagar District Central Co-operative Bank, said the Congress and NCP have decided to jointly contest the forthcoming Parliament and Assembly elections.
There will be exchange of a few seats by the two parties due to the newly structured constituencies. But Ahmednagar Parliamentary Constituency will be contested by NCP only, he stated.
